Chris Broad is another nasty bugger who fined 6 Indian player along with one match suspension of Shewag. Whole team protested and South Africa supported. There by a test between the two was declared an exhibition. I appreciate Dalmiya for his support to the team.
I am sure Chris Broad may make another nasty gesture. Beware Srisanth.

chris board was not the referee at that time it was Mr. Late mike dennis.
The only thing I like about Ponting is his game. The rest of his attributes only display the typical Aussie arrogance!
I hate to agree with anything that he says. Unfortunately, his statement that India's aggression during the first two matches was fake is very true!
On field aggressive displays have never been in the Indian nature, even when our most aggressive captain Saurav Ganguly was at the helm. What we tried during the first 2 games was to copy (unsuccessfully) what the Aussies do. For the Aussies, it is in their blood and they are good at it. For Indians, it is obviously all too artificial.
It would be best if we try to stay as we are and concentrate on the game. Australia are the world champions in cricket and in sledging. We have a better chance of beating Australia in cricket than in sledging.

I dont agree with you, The simple thing that is cricket is what is made complacated by us, by over analysing everything, if indians were giving it back in the first two games, whats wrong in that. What we expect is that we see the aussies straight into their eyes and instill a bit of fear which is so obvious, when it comes down to them facing sreesanth. The fear of the aussies has long gone, new zealand beat them 3 to nothing, england defeated them at their own backyard and now we have a chance too, Just support this new team india and we will go places
As usual ricky cry! just teach manners to your players and you learn too. now its time to payback baby! where are your players like anderson who were dancing a lot before series!
id you ever think why he says so. Bcos our cultre is to take these matters seriuosly. They abuse ,get abused and forget it. where as we carry it whole day. They can do that cos they are self-centered in life and need no emotional support. So having a cool head (Abuse them, but forget it the next momment) is the key. There is nothingthat match Victory.
Ponting is a very obnoxious man but then so are all of of his teammates. They may be a winning team but their odios attitude does not bring them any fans except perhaps in their own country.
He calls himself gentlemanly but he is nothing but a scoundrel.
During a tour of India by australia a few years back, he was physically thrown out of a night club in kolkata by the attendants over there, due to his unscrupulous behaviour.
During a match against the kiwis one or two years back, when Chris Cairns was in full form and hitting sixes a lot, when Chris was dismissed, ponting , even though he was the captain , came up to him and mouthed a lot of obscenities at the departing Chris Cairns, even though Cairns, who is considered a gentle giant, never indulged in sledging at all in his stay at the wicket.
It was a sad sight to see Cairns, who is popular for his gentlemanly and sweet conduct , departing after the scene with ponting in sadness , with his dignity hurt.
Ponting and the aussies should be taught a lesson, and they should not be allowed to get away with propaganda on their so-called chivalrous conduct.
I really enjoyed the nervousness and strong discomfort in pontings face , in the 4th one dayer during the formal ceremony at the end of the game, which australia lost by 8 runs.
Nice to see the aussies 'bleed ', once in a while.

really a nice one, and we should let australia do the same thing in the future game,so i request all the indian players to do well and win the series and throw them out to australia itself. how many times india has lost to them, and after a long time we have won against them and that to with a little margin, even if they cannot digest this, then they are not a cricketer. aus go back better not to touch the indians in future. you scoundrels, no body is there in their team, except gilly, who is a good sportsman.
